<DIV><FONT face="Arial Unicode MS">In case it is of any relevance, I have had
trouble with some PSTricks commands, though others work. \rput and
\psscalebox are among those that seem to work without any problems, but
line-drawing commands are unpredictable: a single line between two pieces
of text seems to work OK, but another line on the same page will fail, and
(curiously) sometimes a line that is given correctly on one page will reappear
at the same co-ordinates on the next page. The latter phenomenon
seems to occur whenever there is another line command on that page: the
actual command is ignored but the command on the preceding page seems to be
invoked for no apparent reason. </FONT></DIV>

<DIV><FONT face="Arial Unicode MS">In all cases the file compiles correctly and
no errors are reported.</FONT></DIV>
